We would like to congratulate Bennett Markinson on his commitment to Northwestern University. Here are Bennett’s recruiting story and interview with his family. Good luck as a Wildcat!
College Decision:
Northwestern University
Why did you choose this college?
I chose Northwestern because it offered me the perfect combination of high-level, competitive Big 10 baseball and incredible academics. I also thoroughly enjoyed every conversation I had with the Northwestern coaching staff and have heard nothing but amazing things about the camaraderie and team chemistry within the program.
How excited are you about your future in college?
I am super excited for the next 4 years! Even though I have yet to visit the campus or meet the coaches in person due to COVID-19, I have been engaging with the school and the coaching staff through virtual tours, phone calls, and zoom meetings and Northwestern is already starting to feel like home.
Why would you recommend SportsForce to other student-athletes or parents?
SportsForce, and especially my advisor Ryan Thompson, was super helpful in informing me about communicating with college coaches and directing me on where I needed to improve my skill-set to be able to play collegiate baseball at the Division 1 level.
Over the last 12 years, SportsForce has helped over 1,000 student-athletes and families successfully navigate the college recruiting and athletic scholarship process while saving families on average $80,000 in college expenses.
Our Mission at SportsForce Baseball:
We are on a mission to help our select number of qualified and evaluated players maximize their recruiting offers and make the best college decision.
Started by CEO & founder Andrew Beinbrink, SportsForce Baseball is a nationally recognized college recruiting advisory group with over 40 former college coaches, players, and MLB scouts in 10 different states.
During the last 11+ years, we’ve helped over 1,000 players make their college commitments.
Read below, why we are different from every recruiting group in the country.
Why SportsForce is Different:
* View our Home Page Video Unlike most recruiting companies, we do not just partner with anyone for our hands-on recruiting programs. Instead, we only partner with qualified players who meet our Five academic, athletic, and coachability selection factors.
We evaluate between 10,000-12,000 players each summer and fall at top showcases and selectively advise, and advocate for only a limited number of players each year by directly contacting college coaches to help them maximize recruiting offers.
Each of our expert college recruiters is limited to how many players they will advise so there is the best combination of hands-on guidance and personal recruiting outreach to college coaches.
Social Media Exposure: We also utilize our growing Twitter following at @SportsForceBB which is followed by over 500 NCAA D1, D2, D3, NAIA, and JC coaches nationwide and growing fast.
To Get Evaluated by Our Expert College Recruiting Staff:
Option 1: Complete our Recruiting Questionnaire
